Instant New York Times bestseller!
From the bestselling author of the âheart-stopping tale of survival and heroismâ (People) The Book of Lost Names comes a gripping historical novel about two mothers who must make unthinkable choices in the face of the Nazi occupation.
Paris, 1939: Young mothers Elise and Juliette become fast friends the day they meet in the beautiful Bois de Boulogne. Though there is a shadow of war creeping across Europe, neither woman suspects that their lives are about to irrevocably change.
When Elise becomes a target of the German occupation, she entrusts Juliette with the most precious thing in her lifeâher young daughter, playmate to Julietteâs own little girl. But nowhere is safe in war, not even a quiet little bookshop like Julietteâs Librairie des RĂȘves, and, when a bomb falls on their neighborhood, Julietteâs world is destroyed along with it.
More than a year later, with the war finally ending, Elise returns to reunite with her daughter, only to find her friendâs bookstore reduced to rubbleâand Juliette nowhere to be found. What happened to her daughter in those last, terrible moments? Juliette has seemingly vanished without a trace, taking all the answers with her. Eliseâs desperate search leads her to New Yorkâand to Julietteâone final, fateful time.
An âexquisite and gut-wrenching novelâ (Lisa Barr, New York Times bestselling author) you wonât soon forget, The Paris Daughter is also a sweeping celebration of resilience, motherhood, and love.

LÀsvÀrd historisk roman, dock lite fluffigt skriven som allt av Kristin Harmel. FörutsÀgbar story men intressant Àmne.
